Making own invitations - rubber stamps etc
Hi, I'm looking at making my own invitations, well that's the idea at the moment, but I'm thinking it could easily end up just as expensive as having them made! So I'm looking for any tips on where to buy cheap, but good quality, card, paper and ribbons etc. I quite like the idea of getting a stamp made so that we can…
